The only side in all four divisions to not pick up a single point on the road this season if we don`t get something here.
Just Orient Charlton and Shrewsbury to go for a whole year without an away win.

Northampton so much more inventive going forward-they pass and move whereas we just tend to pass and watch or welly the ball long..
Two blunders have obviously made a huge difference to the scoreline but in this first half they are just better than us.

Surely it can only get better.
After the horse has bolted but I expect to see Hutch and Yiadom on fairly soon and they will probably score again but we will get a couple and claim to be unlucky losers.

So far I feel sorry for the good number who have travelled and can understand their booing at half-time.

WestYorksRoyal I'm sick of having to make excuses for us being so shit year on year.

Teams full of crocks and frees for years, embargoes, no sane manager wanting to come here. This year the excuse is a young squad, and the worst part of the joke is I agree with what we're trying to do this time.

So I guess I'll get back into defending the manager until he makes me look more and more stupid every week. We may stay up, L2 may beckon. But it's just another season of having to accept being shit again, only a division lower.


We don't know any sane manager didn't want to come here. Jones had 3 interviews and Wilder turned up. Even Warnock said he liked us. So why didn't they come. Warnock wasnt asked but what about the other two? Noone knows that they won't come here. We are assuming. Could be the fact they didn't like Bowen over seeing everything for all we know.


Thought Wilder had turned the job down because of the uncertainty caused by the mess Dai was making of running the club.

The point I was making is that managers come and go and we remain shit. Issues too big for them. Maybe Selles will have a decent career and we'll regret his spell here being a car crash

I have complete faith in the 4-2-2-2 and have no doubt that our excellent manager will inspire a comeback and we will win 3-2. urzzzzz

Hutch coming on for Savage. And Knibbs for Mukairu?

Savage has let the occasion go this head and lost the plot, so pleased with that.

First goal was bad, second was a total joke. Carson had the ST licked for pace but didn't seem to want to try and hold him off other than a half hearted arm out. Less said about Button the better. Every time you think you've seen the worst of it this team outdo themselves. Tactically we're a total shambles, and it seems to be getting worse.

Just keep bringing in untried managers and hoping the next one will be better, baffling, just baffling.

That's what happens when you have a dreadful owner and keep appointing inexperienced failures.

At least Ince never pretended to be particularly good. Selles has given us the cup games to trick us into hope. Dick.

This is Gomes 2. Alienating players and sticking to tactics that just do not work we have no width going forward and no protection for the fallbacks when defending all teams do it just bulk the middle of the park out and we don’t go anywhereThen when they get the ball attackers down the wings and we are wide open.

Didn’t think it was a good appointment and it’s getting worse. We wanted the youth in the side but some of them are just not good enough and being bullied and key down by a manager who is out of his depth

Everyone was pretty adamant that Selles was Bowen's pick after it was suggested he was another crap decision from the owner.

"Disappointing outcome from Femi Azeez there"

Dellor sums Azeez up nicely.

Plan A - get an established experienced manager? Plan B - get the complete fcuking opposite.
